A Stabilization System by Rate Measurement

Avery Lockner

Wartime requirements of airborne armament led to the development of a successful system of stabilization which, when applied to gun turrets, enabled gunners to track a target with greater ease. At present, the system is being adapted to the stabilization of aerial cameras to overcome certain faults inherent in present photographic techniques. This paper discusses the problems and describes the system applied to aerial photography.
